League: NHL – United States of America

Last 10 matches: Ottawa 5-4-1; Anaheim 4-4-2
One thing that has been clicking for Anaheim has been its special teams. The Ducks have killed off 24 of the last 26 minor penalties they’ve taken and have also scored a power-play goal in five of their last six games. This is the only meeting between the teams this season and just the third since Anaheim defeated Ottawa in five games to win the 2007 Stanley Cup Final. The Ducks also beat the Senators 3-1 at the Honda Center on March 3, 2008, and 4-3 at Scotiabank Place on Oct. 24, 2008.
Every time the Ducks pull themselves off the canvas, they seem to get hit by another body blow. After starting a seven-game homestand by winning four of five, they have now dropped four in a row, blowing third-period leads in the last two. In the process of losing in Dallas on Thursday, they also saw veteran forward Teemu Selanne go down with a fractured bone in his left hand that will sideline him 4-6 weeks.
Milan Michalek is enjoying a breakout season, but Ottawa can hope the other player it got back in the Dany Heatley trade, Jonathan Cheechoo, is starting to find his way. He scored a goal in Los Angeles and followed that up by assisting on both goals against Phoenix.

Anaheim forwards Joffrey Lupul and Bobby Ryan each netted a pair of goals against Minnesota. For Lupul, it was his first game in the lineup after missing seven straight due to back spasms. Goal’s highlights, results and more will be on site, as soon as posible.
